Fox News alert. Former President Trump says he’s going to turn himself in at a Fulton County, Georgia jail this Thursday where we believe they’ll take his mugshot,” Fox bro Jesse Watters laments bro-ly. “Trump will then have to post bail: $200,000 cash bond to secure his release. Democrats have never supported cash bail until they arrested Trump. The guy who torched the Fox News Christmas tree didn’t have to post any cash bail. But Trump makes a phone call to fight for election integrity, and he has to post two hundred grand. That just shows you, it’s not about the crime, it’s about the punishment.”
… ‘cept he’ll get the bond back if he shows up for court, and he’s charged with a serious crime–a plot attempting to undermine the Constitution and invalidate the votes of Georgians–so ensuring he shows up for trial is important, particularly for someone who owns his own jet. And yes, liberals don’t like prohibitive cash bail because people subjected to it typically don’t have the money to cover it, and it’s imposed for non-violent, non-seditious reasons. It makes one wonder if Jesse’s concerned Trump won’t be able to raise the “two hundred grand” in cash.
